MUTAFAAKIR improved on his debut effort when fourth at Newmarket last time. He caught the eye staying on well in the closing stages and will appreciate today's extra furlong. Hurricane In Dubai made a promising debut at Lingfield in November and could figure along with District Attorney but Daliance was a big disappointment on his reappearance and may be best watched for now. The winners finally started to arrive for Sir Michael Stoute last week so newcomer Sabre Tooth is worth noting along with Mark Johnston's filly Raheeba and Cactus Valley but Carthaginian, a 315,000gns half-brother to the smart Mont Ras, could prove best of the newcomers.
